I hold a BA and MA in history from CSU, Fresno. I hold a Multiple Subjects credential. In 2000, I was trained as a Literacy Coach and worked in that capacity for 4 years in junior high. For the past 16 years, I’ve been the high school Reading Specialist, as well as an English and History teacher.
I just started the Twitter account and that’s really all I’m working with— I will be adding things to YouTube and IG.
